    Bovada has Trump at -120 and Biden at +130. Wouldn't be surprised if that flips after Biden officially gets the nomination. Go get paid.
    Nothing else to bet on these days!
    You're not kidding! I've been watching Korean baseball for a week. This close to jumping in on some KBO DFS.

    I just realized that we're going to miss the LLWS and the CWS too.  Goddammit I love baseball.  The great thing about baseball is that it's always good, no matter the level.  Watching minor league hockey sucks compared to NHL.  But minor league baseball (or Korean) is still high quality baseball.

    It really is. ESPN has been doing a great job with the broadcast, too. They've had guys on like Thames and Lindblom who played in the KBO and came back. They had Adam Jones on the other day from Japan. Trevor Bauer was on this morning. We're still at least a month out before the NPB starts up and who knows about MLB. This has been a solid substitute. Definitely worth DVRing.

    If hockey is were someone’s  favorite sport, they would enjoy minors or college.

    Baseball has some inherent problems outside of MLB.

    For me, CWS is very difficult to watch. I hear the aluminum ping and I am out the door.

    And the DL is a disaster. Even the AL can be a tough pill to swallow at times.

    The Disabled List? Yes, that roster is a disaster, they’re all hurt. “Now, here’s the wind up from Price and it’s way outside to the backstop for ball four. You know Johnny, he should have had Tommy John surgery a month ago but he’s still pitching. Quite the warrior that Price. Next up with two on is Mookie Betts, coming to the plate with a broken ankle. He’s wincing but boy can he swing the bat, isn’t that right?”

    I’d pay to watch that about now. Not wishing harm or injury on any professional sports player.

    Compared to the NHL the minor leagues "suck"....but in markets where minor league is all you have it is great.  In Indianapolis we have the Indy Fuel which is the Blackhawks ECHL team.  The games are intense, rivalries are intense, etc.  Good stuff.

    I think there's a dramatic quality of play difference between NHL and the ECHL, as an example.  It's a far larger drop off than MLB to AAA.

    I prefer college sports in general to pro sports (though not baseball as my school didn't have it and I hate the ping of metal bats).  That said, college hockey is a far lesser product than the NHL.  Their inability to make/receive clean passes gets pretty frustrating.  On the rare occasions I go to an NHL game, I marvel at how much better the game is (also more expensive and lacking the connection I have to my school).  I could totally see a hard-core NHL fan not wanting to go to a college game.

    In hoops, the level/ability drop is noticeable but it's still a more enjoyable game to me than the NBA.  Football...to me the quality difference is negligible (and the atmosphere is way better in college).  My little experience with college baseball is that the quality is OK and the game is probably as watchable, but my lack of rooting interest, the degree to which it's a a fringe sport in the cold midwest, and the metal bats kinda keep me away.

    I tend to agree...I haven't been to a minor-league hockey game since the early 2000s...but the dropoff was huge (particularly when I went to an ECHL game when they were a level below the AHL...now I think they're "high minors").  I haven't been to a AAA game but I've been to A and AA and I tend to agree that the drop-off is not that noticeable.

    ECHL is a level below AHL...a lot of our players come and go from the Rockford IceHogs.  Delia played on the Fuel for a year.

    This trending topic on Twitter is more about the upcoming election strategy from the right so I'll move it here. The comments are good.
    Sound didn't work for me but it's ok.

    Whether it's Republicans railing against FISA or Democrats screaming about fascism, remember that it's all theater and they will always ultimately vote to expand their power. Failed by one vote with 9 Dems voting against and Bernie not voting.
